Sampling Adipose and Muscle Tissue following Post-Harvest Scalding Does Not Affect RNA Integrity or Real-Time PCR Results in Market Weight Yorkshire Pigs

Foods, 2022
Improving production efficiency while enhancing pork quality is pivotal for strengthening sustainable pork production. Being able to study both gene expression and indices of pork quality from the same anatomical location of an individual animal would ...

Space-Time Sampling for Network Observability

, 2018
Designing sparse sampling strategies is one of the important components in having resilient estimation and control in networked systems as they make network design problems more cost-effective due to their reduced sampling requirements and less fragile ...

Kleinvoet: a Spatially-Distributed Temporally-Synchronised Infrasonic Recorder

Journal of Open Hardware, 2023
We present the hardware design of a high-fidelity, low-cost infrasonic-capable (6 Hz) passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) prototype instrument. The device allows temporal synchronisation using a variety of global navigation satellite system (GNSS ...

Validation of Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Devices on Sheep to Detect Grazing Movement Leaders and Social Networks in Merino Ewes

Sensors, 2021
Understanding social behaviour in livestock groups requires accurate geo-spatial localisation data over time which is difficult to obtain in the field. Automated on-animal devices may provide a solution.

Optimal Alarms for Vehicular Collision Detection

, 2017
An important application of intelligent vehicles is advance detection of dangerous events such as collisions. This problem is framed as a problem of optimal alarm choice given predictive models for vehicle location and motion.

Measuring the impact of observations on the predictability of the Kuroshio Extension in a shallow-water model [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper sequential importance sampling is used to assess the impact of observations on a ensemble prediction for the decadal path transitions of the Kuroshio Extension (KE). This particle filtering approach gives access to the probability density of

Survey Methods for Hard-to-Reach Populations: Introduction to the Special Issue

Methodological Innovations, 2010
Surveys of hard to reach populations (rare, no known sampling frames) have been, for some years, the object of methodological reflection. Various methods aiming at the production of an ‘extrapolable’ sample of these populations have been proposed: time ...

A Novel Pix2Pix Enabled Traveling Wave-Based Fault Location Method

Sensors, 2021
This paper proposes a new Image-to-Image Translation (Pix2Pix) enabled deep learning method for traveling wave-based fault location. Unlike the previous methods that require a high sampling frequency of the PMU, the proposed method can translate the ...

Optimizing sampling design to deal with mist-net avoidance in Amazonian birds and bats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Mist netting is a widely used technique to sample bird and bat assemblages. However, captures often decline with time because animals learn and avoid the locations of nets. This avoidance or net shyness can substantially decrease sampling efficiency.

The Direction of Arrival Location Deception Model Counter Duel Baseline Phase Interferometer Based on Frequency Diverse Array

Frontiers in Physics, 2021
With the emergence and development of the passive localization, the radiation source is more visible for the location system which endangers their survival. Therefore, there is an urgent demand for the radio frequency (RF) stealth technology.
